Arrests Made in Schemes to Evade Sanctions and Supply Russian Military

Four individuals have been arrested and charged in connection with two separate schemes to unlawfully export controlled, dual-use technologies to Russia following Russia's invasion of Ukraine. In one case, defendants used two corporate entities registered in Brooklyn to unlawfully source and purchase millions of dollars' worth of dual-use electronics on behalf of end-users in Russia, including companies affiliated with the Russian military.

The arrests and charges highlight the determination of the U.S. Justice Department to hold accountable those who flout laws to aid the Russian war machine and evade sanctions and export controls.
